Chapter 251 Planting corn can also be announced on the whole server? !

  Greenhouse Ruins.

   One floor above the ground.

  The place where the players fought **** battles before has now become a lush botanical garden. The soilless cultivation boxes are full of corn, stacked like containers and arranged in layers.

  The situation here was really tragic.

   The first paddler who went in had only one VM left, and the second wave of people who went in was almost wiped out. It was not until Brother Mole developed the "shield wall strategy" that the situation was broken.

  But then everyone got their equipment up, so it was much easier to brush this book.

  Lao Bai, who is wearing heavy armor, is carrying it in front, and the players in the back row are directly holding submachine guns, chug a 9mm shuttle.

   Hit someone?

what is the relationship.

  9mm pistol bullets hit the steel plate, but they can’t penetrate it anyway, leaving a few holes on the steel plate at most.

  This kind of large-caliber low-velocity ammunition has a miraculous effect on unarmored insect-type aliens.

  Originally, their stomachs are filled with water and glue, and 7mm can make a hole in them if they are uncertain, but if they are replaced with 9mm, they can be blown open directly.

  After the first floor was opened up, Chu Guang immediately issued a task for the players to plant corn.

   Now three months have passed, and more than 90 days have passed before and after, and the golden leaves wrapped in leaves have hung on the emerald green poles.

  Looking at the mature cornfield in front of him, Chu Guang nodded in approval with a fatherly smile on his face.

   "Good job!"

  The seeds given by the refuge have been genetically modified, and the growth rate is relatively fast.

  In reality, even early-maturing corn takes a hundred days to ripen, but here it takes almost ninety days.

correct.

  Almost forgot the business.

   Sensing the expectant eyes behind him, Chu Guang came back to his senses, raised his index finger calmly, and stretched out his hand to swipe on the VM.

soon.

  The task settlement list was sent to Makabazi's VM.

  【Mission: Harvest Day (Completed)】

  【Reward: 1000 silver coins, 500 contribution points, 2000 regional reputation. 】

   "Fuck! Awesome!"

   "Four-digit rewards!!!"

  Seeing a series of rewards, Makabazi burst into tears with excitement.

  Not to mention 500 points of contribution.

  Faction contribution is a good thing at any time, whether it is buying equipment, doing tasks, or buying industries, it is all linked to this thing.

  The only regret is that the prestige of the region is given to the outpost, not Changjiu Farm.

  His current reputation at Changjiu Farm has reached "Friendly", and he is almost able to surpass the 10,000 threshold to reach Respect.

   Just when Brother Maca was getting excited, a line of words jumped out of the VM, which made him almost faint from happiness.

  【Congratulations to player "Makabazi" for becoming the first player to harvest corn. 】

  【Please choose whether to announce the whole server: Yes/No】

  Seeing the surprise that popped up suddenly, Ma Kabazi yelled almost reflexively.

   "Yes! Yes!"

  Although Chu Guang really wanted to remind this guy, he didn’t need to shout out, all he had to do was reach out and tap on the VM screen.

   But seeing how excited this little player was, Chu Guang didn't disappoint him.

  Three months.

  It is really not easy to persevere.

  From sowing to the final harvest, each step has a corresponding task, and a series of tasks constitute the entire task chain.

  As the automatic watering and harvesting systems of the greenhouse ruins have been damaged, many jobs that could have been done by machines now need to be done manually.

   Includes watering and fertilizing.

  Although these tasks are also rewarding, they are still a bit boring compared to hunting and picking up trash.

  The three-month-long task cycle, to be able to persist until the crops are mature, this Makabazi man is also a strange person.

   At least in Chu Guang's mind, he was comparable to the fisherman who went to sit by the lake every day regardless of the wind or snow!

  【Full server announcement: Player "Makabazi" successfully harvested the first batch of corn. 】

  Looking at the window that appeared on the VM, Makabazi was so excited that he wanted to roll in the cornfield.

  If the manager wasn't around, he might have already done this.

   "Hahahaha! I also have the first kill in the whole server!"

  Chu Guang looked at the little player with a smile on his face.

   "Can the work of harvesting be entrusted to you?"

   "Don't worry, Master Manager!"

  Makabazi patted his chest, and continued talking happily.

   “I can even help you to the granary!”

  Chu Guang said.

   "That's unnecessary, the workload is too much, I will arrange someone to help you."

   Taking his gaze away from Makabazi, Chu Guang continued to look at the cornfield in front of him, with a touch of joy showing on his face involuntarily.

  Is this what a good harvest feels like?

really not bad.

  …

  Arranging a new task for Brother Maca, Chu Guang immediately left the greenhouse ruins, returned to the outpost to find Guo Ma, and handed over the work of harvesting.

   With so many crops, Makabazi alone may not be able to finish it even if he is exhausted.

   What's more, harvesting is not just about tearing the corn off the stalk, and then you have to remove the seeds, dry it, and store it in storage.

  Doing these tasks in the ruins may be more troublesome than sowing the seeds.

  There are not many tower-type soilless cultivation boxes on the first floor, and the actual planting area is slightly smaller than that of other floors, but the actual planting area is nearly 50 mu.

  According to a rough estimate based on planting area and density experience, the output is about 25 tons, and the error is within two tons.

  Even under the conditions of inexperienced planting and management and insufficient fertilization, the yield of nearly 500 kilograms per mu was still achieved.

   In addition to the first floor, the greenhouse ruins have other floors.

  Not counting the reactor on the ninth floor and the devil moth nest on the tenth floor, the five floors above ground and the eight floors below ground add up to a total of thirteen floors, and the theoretical planting area can reach 870 acres!

  Up to now, the five floors on the surface and the four floors underground have been developed into farmland.

   Half of the potatoes and half of the corn, add up to 600 acres.

  These capacities will be gradually released in the next month, and the total output is estimated to reach 300~400 tons.

  Combined with other food sources such as hunting and farming, it is enough to feed 3,000 people for a year!

  Of course, the actual food consumption of a player cannot be simply calculated as a population.

  Especially for the awakened ones, not only are their physical fitness and metabolism far superior to that of ordinary people, but their appetite is also two to three times that of ordinary people.

  Even Chu Guang himself felt it.

  At the beginning, he could eat two meals with one can, but now he can’t wait to open two cans for one meal.

   In a sense, this is also a kind of energy conservation?

  Based on the actual food consumption rate, the 300-400 tons of food may only be enough for half a year.

   Still, even that is enough.

  Thirty thousand mu of wasteland has been reclaimed, even if the production efficiency in the first year is only half of that of the greenhouse site, the food produced is enough for him to use several versions.

  The part above the B4 floor of the greenhouse ruins is used for farming.

   As for B5 to B9, Chu Guang didn't plant all the crops, but planned to save "raising Gu" and harvest it every few months, leaving it to the players to repeatedly brush the devil moths.

  Spirit leaf, you can cut half and keep the other half.

  After a round of mowing, the gates from floors B5 to B9 are fully opened to let the moths come in and lay their cubs.

  In this way, an assembly line-like harvest can be achieved.

   In the future, the 10,000 mu of fertile land on the north side of Linghu Lake will be reclaimed, and it will be no problem to use the entire greenhouse to raise devil moths!

  Whether it is spirit leaves or devil silk, they are all rare items in the wasteland. His family is probably the only one that can produce these two things stably within a hundred miles.

  …

   "Damn it?! Planting a piece of corn can make a full server announcement?"

   "Shady! Properly shady!"

   "Damn it, boss Crow is fine, even Makabazi dedicated his soul and **** to the planner?"

   "Hey! If I knew it earlier, I would have found a piece of land and planted the seeds!"

   "But looking at it from another angle, the identity of the son of the professional player version of life is also confirmed. Planting corn can be announced in the whole server, and that kind of potato announcement is reasonable, right?"

   "!!"

  West side of Jiujiu Farm.

  Little players carrying picks and shovels working on the wasteland were chattering and chattering, and not far away were plowing tractors clattering and dragging their rakes.

   Looking back at the almost invisible wall, Father Baiyin threw away the rake in his hand, panting, and sat on the side of the field ridge, baring his teeth and yelling.

   "When the **** do we have to do this?"

  Silver Sword swung his **** without saying a word, and replied without raising his head.

   "See how many activity points you want to get."

  Papa of Silver: "Fuck! Isn't there even a limit for this activity??"

  Silver Sword: "No."

   Father of Silver: "???"

   Why can’t this be rolled into the sky? !

   As we all know, when doing activities in general games, except for krypton gold, there is no upper limit, and other rewards and points that can be obtained will have a upper limit.

   This is mainly to prevent players from exaggerating the data.

   But this game doesn't seem to have this tradition.

  As long as you want, you can continue to work until the character is exhausted, until the "anti-addiction mechanism" is triggered and the physical disconnection is triggered.

  Silver Hand, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't help complaining: "By the way, aren't you a physique system? Why are you working slower than the two of us?"

Dad of Silver rolled his eyes: "Ghost knows! The physical attributes of this game only increase debuff resistance and recovery speed, and have nothing to do with stamina hair! And you two, didn't you agree that one should choose strength and the other choose agility? Why did you choose two forces?!"

   "You have the nerve to talk about us!"

   "Exactly! Didn't you say you chose the Department of Intelligence?"

   Seeing the two little friends glaring at him, Father Baiyin coughed awkwardly, and said with a smile.

   "I heard that the content of this game is quite rich, with high physical fitness and fast recovery speed. If you want to date online in the future... you guys understand."

  The Silver Hand and the Silver Sword looked at each other.

  Understanding is understanding.

but…

   "I think the idea is a bit redundant."

   "Indeed, I think so too."

   "Gan! What do you two mean?"

  Silver Sword shrugged.

   "It's nothing, I just think it's a bit difficult for you to have an online date with your broken ID."

  The Silver Hand nodded.

   "+1, shemales don't talk to your bird ID."

  Silver Father: "%￥#@!"

  …

   Just when the newcomers were working in the field, Jushicheng, located on the edge of the third ring road, ushered in a group of special guests.

   "Is this the Boulder City?"

   "This wall is built like a dam..."

   "Holy crap... how much concrete does it take?"

"have no idea…"

   Concrete walls as high as a 20-story building.

  Counting the steel structure inside, the consumption of cement and steel is probably astronomical.

  On the way down from the elevated road, the eyes of Lao Bai, Ye Shi, and Kuang Feng were glued to the wall and could not move away.

  Since he had been surprised once before, Fang Chang's expression was quite calm, and he coughed lightly.

   "Be normal."

  Ye Shi swallowed, and looked away from the huge wall.

   "I think I am normal, but this game is not normal!"

  Guangfeng standing aside also nodded.

   "+1."

  Although it is a bit idealistic to say so, since this huge wall can be built, it makes no sense that it will be blocked by gnawers.

  This doesn't make any sense.

   Unless the wall fell from the sky.

   "These rednecks."

  Looking at the ignorance of these people, the mercenary walking beside the team laughed in a low voice, but was glared at by the mercenary leader.

"Shut up."

   Seeing the boss speak, the mercenary immediately shut his mouth, not daring to speak again.

   Looking back from his subordinates, the mercenary leader glanced in the direction of those people, and saw that they didn't notice this way, so he was a little relieved.

  These people are very powerful.

  Whether it's the man with the bow on his back or the man with the machine gun on his back.

  Although this sounds outrageous, his intuition told him that these two people might both be awakeners!

  He doesn't want to provoke a force that can keep Deathclaw as a pet.

  The goods are about to be delivered, and causing trouble at this time is not good for anyone.

  Get off the elevated road.

   Not far in front is the Yuanfangfeng Hotel and the slums directly opposite.

   As the group of people walked towards the door, many people were also looking at them, especially the goods on the back of the two-headed ox.

   After seeing the few children sitting at the door of the slum, they seemed to see something, whispered a few whispers, and quickly ran back to the slum.

   Not long after, several men with skull tattoos on their faces came out of the slums.

   Seeing these people, Xu Shun put his hands on his waist calmly, Fang Chang and Lao Bai exchanged glances, and put their hands on the weapons in unison.

   Instead of showing any fear on the faces of several players, there was a hint of excitement in their eyes.

  Is this going to trigger the plot?

   Hurry up!

  Reading the tense atmosphere in the air, Shuyu's heart has already reached his throat.

  But remembering that he represented Vault 404, he still tried his best not to show a nervous expression on his face.

   "Tommy, where did you get so many good things?" The bald man with a dagger tattoo on his face walking in the front cast a playful look at the mercenary leader.

  The mercenary leader's face was tense, and he said expressionlessly.

   "It's not my thing, but I advise you not to think about these things, unless you think it's not enough trouble."

   "Ha, who is your employer?"

  Before the mercenary leader answered, a voice floated out from the team.

   "Lister."

   Walking out of the team, Qian Lai looked at the bald man with a dagger tattoo on his face and continued.

"Any questions?"

  Hearing Liszt's name, the bald man's face changed slightly, and his joking expression restrained a little.

   "Of course there is no problem. In fact, I just want to ask... With so many herbs, do you need someone to help sell them? We can help."

  Qian Lai said impatiently.

   "One kilogram of 100 chips, if you can buy them all, I can give you a 10% discount."

  I am afraid that if you buy them all, you will get tens of thousands of chips.

but…

  If you can eat this batch of goods and refine them into spiritual water, it may not be a problem to double or triple the amount.

  The bald-headed expression was a bit embarrassed, and he said in a deep voice.

   "...Well, I have to ask my boss."

  Qian Lai said succinctly.

   "I can wait until eight o'clock tonight, you know how to contact me."

  After getting their noses dusted, those little guys returned to the slums.

   Staring at their backs, Shuyu looked at Qian Lai and asked.

"they are?"

   "The Dagger Gang, sometimes they tattoo daggers on their faces, sometimes on their arms, don't worry, you don't have to deal with these people."

   Qian Lai then looked at Tommy's mercenary leader, and urged, "Let's go, if you stay here for too long, there will be other flies flying over."

  The group continued on the road, queuing up at the gate of the city for inspection.

  The militiamen in charge of the inspection saw the goods on the back of the cattle, and they all showed surprised expressions on their faces.

   "Another batch? Where the **** did you get it?"

  He remembered the person in front of him, and it seemed to be the same guy a week ago.

  Qian Lai opened his eyes and said nonsense: "The plantation in the south, the survivors there have a lot of stock."

  The militiaman obviously didn't believe his nonsense, but he didn't say anything, just hinted.

   "I'm afraid this thing will have to pay a lot of taxes."

   “Of course, we are law-abiding citizens.”

  Qian Lai had a friendly smile on his face, and just like the last time he came, he quietly stuffed a bag of chips into their hands.

  The militiaman who collected the money opened the bag, glanced at it, smiled knowingly, dug out two from the inside, stuffed them into his pocket, and then walked towards the table by the door.

   "It's all vegetables."

  The officer in charge of registration glanced at the bag of chips on the table, and made two ticks in the notebook.

   "Put them in."

  Shuyu glanced at Qian Lai in a little surprise.

   Is this all right?

   Noticing his gaze, Qian Lai smiled, and said in a soft voice.

   "There is no need to pay taxes on food, which will save money... So you see, we are not without cost."

   Shuyu asked.

   "Is there no need to check if you pay the money?"

  Qian Lai thought for a while and said.

   "Not necessarily, it depends on the situation and the person. If you want to send contraband in, I'm afraid it will be a bit difficult."

  Shuyu nodded thoughtfully.

  Although he has done business, he always feels that the situation here is more complicated than his hometown...

  Pay the entry tax.

   A group of people entered the city smoothly.

  According to the contract, the mercenaries sent them to the warehouse area, and then settled their wages with Qian Lai.

  The warehouse Liszt rented is not far from the entrance of the warehouse area, and there is still some space inside, which is more than enough to store a ton of goods.

After several people unloaded the goods together, Qian Lai asked the guard with bandages on his arms to move the two-headed cow to the shed at the gate of the warehouse area and return it. Then he looked at Shuyu and the others who were traveling with him, and said with a smile .

   "If you don't want to rent a warehouse, you can also store the goods with us. There are not many things anyway."

   Shuyu declined.

   "No, we are going to rent a storefront."

   Qian Lai said politely.

   "Are you in such a hurry? Boulder City is huge, you can take a look and choose a better place."

   Shuyu shook his head.

   "Master Manager just ask me to find a place near the warehouse."

  The reservoir area of ​​Boulder City is very close to the city gate. Crossing a street is the trading post, and after that is the market where locals buy things. The traffic is quite convenient.

  The office is just for convenience, there is no need to open it in a particularly prosperous place, or even a smaller one, and the monthly rent should be kept below 1,000 chips as much as possible.

  In the future, if they have the conditions, they will buy one.

   This is what the manager ordered before he set off.

  Qian Lai didn't say anything more, but he still enthusiastically led them outside the reservoir area and found a place where they could rent a house.

  There are a lot of vacant houses here, and the rent is not expensive. For a 120-square-meter facade, you only need to pay 800 chips a month, and the average is only 20 chips a day.

  If you add another 200 chips, the landlord said that you can rent the two empty rooms upstairs to them together.

   If you want to buy it, not only will you need to spend nearly 300,000 chips for such a house, but you will also have to pay 50 chips per month for management fees and land taxes.

  Looking at the jumping subtitles on the VM, Ye Shi counted with his fingers, and looked suspiciously at Fang Chang next to him.

   "1666 chips per square meter, is this considered cheap or expensive?"

  Fang Chang thought for a while and said.

   "It's cheap based on the rent-to-sale ratio, but it's a bit expensive based on prices and income. I remember the textile factory in the nearby industrial area, two meals of nutrition cream, the daily salary seems to be 3 to 4 chips?"

   Calculated, the monthly salary is only 90 to 120, which is not even enough to buy a rifle.

  If it is a child laborer, most factories only give 1 chip a day, and some simply only pay for food, and the wages are paid once a week, or they are simply paid with the goods produced.

  Since the smallest unit is a chip, it is not even possible to calculate the hourly wages of the locals.

   But relatively, the salary of an engineer will be a little higher, basically 10 times more than that of an ordinary worker. If the working place is outside the city or even in other nearby survivor settlements, it is more likely to double the original basis.

  Some technicians who master scarce technologies can even reach three-digit daily salaries.

  However, these giant pandas usually do not go outside the city at all, and usually live in high-end apartments close to the inner city, and some even simply moved into the inner city with a good environment.

   As for the mercenaries?

   Most of them only earn what they spend today, and it doesn't make sense to discuss their income.

  NPCs are still haggling over rent.

  Shuyu gave full play to his bargaining skills, and has already reduced the rent to 900 yuan a month.

   This price has already touched the bottom line of the landlord, but the houses here are no better than the bustling neighborhoods, and it is really not easy to rent, so he can only be patient and talk to these people in front of him.

  Ye Shi calculated for a long time, then suddenly raised his head.

   "Damn it, I knew I should save up the chips!"

  Old Bai gave him a strange look.

   "What are you doing with that stuff?"

   "Buy a set!" Ye Shi said with twinkling eyes, "When the new map is fully opened, someone will come, right? We can rent it to them! Isn't this much better than exchanging silver coins directly?"

  Lease to Fujitō!

   10,000 silver coins a month!

  The rich woman Fujiteng must be able to afford it!

  Gust: "..."

  Fang Chang was speechless: "Do the chips you touched add up to 10?"

  Ye Shi: "Uh, that's true."

  Old Bai: "And what's the use of buying this place? It's so far away from the resurrection point. It's better to build one next to the base."

   "But then again, there should be shops in Boulder City, right?" Gale, standing on the street, glanced around, "Have you investigated the prices of such equipment?"

   "A Drone X-2 assault rifle costs 150 chips. It looks like a G9 assault rifle. Iron-barreled rifles are cheaper, and they seem to be sold by weight."

  Guangfeng then asked: "Where's the bionic prosthetic body?"

  Fang Chang was slightly taken aback.

   "This... I didn't see it. I went to several weapons stores and didn't see it, but they did sell that kind of exoskeleton."

  As soon as they heard this sentence, the expressions on the faces of the three became agitated instantly.

   "Fuck, exoskeleton?!"

"you sure?"

   "Stop beeping, hurry up and take us there!"

   "What's the use of you going? Do you have money to buy?"

  Looking at his teammates with shining eyes, Fang Chang sighed helplessly.

   "...Forget it, you will find out when you go."

  Ye Shi had already carried the package on the ground on his back, and said with a smile.

   "Take these too! Maybe you can sell them for some money!"

  Fang Chang was speechless.

   "Is it someone else's bargaining chip if you sell it..."

  Ye Shi: "It's okay! We agreed before we set off that half of the chips sold will be ours!"

  Fang Chang froze for a moment.

   And this thing?

   But looking at the appearance of the three teammates, it doesn't look like they are joking.

  The boss, who was negotiating the price, saw these country bumpkins picking up the parcels on the ground, and thought they were not planning to rent them, so he panicked and yelled.

   "800! 800 is no problem! But you have to pay three months' rent at a time, and you have to pay another month's deposit! This is already the lowest price, and it is impossible to find a cheaper one!"

   Didn't miss this opportunity, Shuyu said immediately.

"make a deal!"

   Qian Lai, who was standing beside him, couldn't help being stunned when he saw the man in front of him, and changed his previous opinion of him.

   Good guy.

   Picking up two floors for nothing?

  This guy might be a talent.
